Africa's Struggle for Its Art: History of a Postcolonial Defeat

Bénédicte Savoy

Bénédicte Savoy recovers the forgotten history of African demands, from the 1960s onward, for the return of art taken during colonial rule. She shows how European museums resisted them. The book also raises questions about how cultural records and objects are collected, interpreted, preserved and shared.
